Frame Analysis settings apply to all new simulations. Whenever a new frame simulation is started, these preferences are used.
In the Frame Analysis Settings dialog box, you can specify:
- If Heads up Display is the preferred method used during input and edit.
- Colors for displayed boundary conditions, nodes, rigid links, gravity.
- Scale for displayed nodes, loads, and constraints.
- Default visibility settings for all components (beams and other parts) after the conversion.
- Solver method used for beam releases.
- Display of diagrams.
In this tutorial, we use the dialog boxes for input of boundary conditions values.
On the ribbon, click Frame Analysis Settings
in the Settings panel.
In the General tab, clear the Use HUD in Application check box. Click OK.
